[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Everything you posted above is pretty common. Your title makes  it sounds very serious  like serious mental illness-- it's not. People w/ ADHD very often have co-morbidity with depression and anxiety, which all can be managed through heathy choices, therapy and/or meds. . You can get therapy to help manage your aspergers symptoms. Maybe your anxiety issues are inflating this to be a much bigger deal than it is. You'll be Ok. Sounds like you're pretty fabulous with all  those  fancy degrees. ?[/quote]

I don't think I'm inflating it.  When the last shooting attributed to AS happened (can't remember specifically), DH went on a rant about people "like that" needing to be locked up in mental institutions.  What would he say if he knew his wife was one of them?

And in case anyone's wondering, women tend to hide AS a lot better than boys and men can, so I'm not stereotypical and not surprised he hasn't caught on.[/quote]

Ok, well he's not well educated.  You cannot control his him and frankly he sounds a bit frightening.

You don't sound like a homicidal maniac. ? But you do sound scared and lonely. Get the testing done for yourself, get a good therapist and learn how to appreciate yourself. You sound like a good person.[/quote]
